ASSIGNMENT 1: Physical and Chemical Properties and Changes
The white color of the T-shirt is an example of a physical property. A
physical property is the characteristics of a substance that can be observed
without changing the identity of the substance.
A physical change takes place when the white T-shirt is tie dyed. A physical
change is the changes in the size, shape or state of matter, but it does not
change the identity of the substance. The T-shirt is still made from the material
after it was tie dyed so it is a physical change.
Oxidation is a chemical property of copper. A chemical property is a property that
describes how a substance changes into another substance.
When copper is exposed to oxygen overtime, the copper turns into a green
substance also known as verdigris. This is a chemical change. A chemical change
is a change that a substance undergoes when it turns into a new substance.
